Well, so as the thing says, I've updated the software a lot, comissioned an artist for a logo and now is not a hell to install.

@gabboman @fediverse oh wow I wonder who would develop this

Is this comment made from a wafrn instance? It's cool that it works with lemmy

@arudesalad its more like in mastodon tbh. its a comment to a post

I was just scrolling through the instance to see what it is like and I saw this post, I know it's federation but it is still really cool

What differences does this have over Lemmy?

Edit: I never actually used Tumbler

[–] [email protected] 21 points 11 months ago

lemmy is reddit. wafrn is tumblr

Tumblr is a blogging experience that's similar to Twitter, but more focused on the user itself than on the central feed.

  • You have your blogs and you post there. Yes, you can have many blogs.
  • There's global feeds with posts from all users, potentially including yours.
  • Posts can have non-intrusive hashtags, meaning they are not #partOfThePost, but in a separate, smaller, dedicated section of the post.
  • You can't post stuff to someone else's blog, but you can comment on their posts. Comments are tiny next to the post.
  • You can quote posts, but that makes a duplicate in a blockquote rather than linking to the original post like Twitter

Like the title says, it's meant to be a Tumblr-esque experience.

@technomad @gabboman ok so reddit is like a forum. Tumblr is twitter without sucking that much ass. I mean, it does because ceo has gne full cunt mode, but anyway

Okay, but why male models?

No alt right, no nazis, no terfs.

How it's possible to enforce this on self-hostable software?

How do you pronounce Wafrn?

The more alternatives to corporation owned social media the better! I hope it takes off, but I've never really been a Tumblr guy.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago

Keep making open source projects words no one can pronounce or spell. I love using stuff no one uses… glad it’s being worked on but wow it’s like a battle to name things confusing sets of letters

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

Interesting choice of name to say the least...
